Yoshio Shinozuka really didn't want to believe that Iijima Mori, who had always been conscientious and loyal, would betray His Majesty the Emperor and the Empire of Japan.

Then he asked again: "Miyano-kun, did you learn this news from Sun Dayi's mouth?

If this is the case, then it must be a alienation plan by the Chinese people, and its purpose is to cause conflicts within our imperial army, and even to kill Iijima-kun, the intelligence genius."

"The Chinese people have always been cunning and cunning. We have to guard against them, let alone fall into their trap!"

Miyano-kun said with regret on his face: "Your Excellency Commander, Sun Dayi has a very tough mouth. Even though we tortured him to death, and later even tortured him to death, he didn't say a word.

All this was learned through a secret investigation by the Special High School Division."

Shinozuka Yoshio's face suddenly turned ugly: "Has Iijima-kun been arrested?"

Miyano Jun: "After all, Iijima Mori was once a hero of the empire and your favorite disciple, so I did not arrest him. Even Iijima Mori himself did not know that he was exposed."

Shinozuka Yoshio nodded. Miyano Shun's move undoubtedly gave him a lot of face, so he said: "Go and call Iijima Mori to my office. Don't tell me the reason first, just say that I have something important to do."

Discuss it with him."

"Hiyi!"

Miyano Jun paused heavily, then turned and left.

Yoshio Shinozuka went directly to the office without even eating.

About ten minutes later, Miyano Shun led Iijima Mori to Shinozuka Yoshio's office.

"Your Excellency Commander, Iijima-kun is here."

Miyano Shun bowed respectfully to Shinozuka Yoshio, then turned around and left, not forgetting to close the door to leave the two of them alone.

Miyano Shun was not afraid that Iijima Mori would be unfavorable to Shinozuka Yoshio, because Iijima Mori was not only Shinozuka Yoshio's favorite protégé in mainland China, but also Shinozuka Yoshio brought him up.

Therefore, even if Iijima Mori betrays His Majesty the Emperor and the Empire of Japan, he will never harm Yoshio Shinozuka.

"Squeak!——"

The door was gently closed, and only Shinozuka Yoshio and Iijima Mori were left in the huge office.

Iijima Mori had already vaguely noticed that something was wrong, but he still had to bite the bullet and said to Shinozuka Yoshio: "Teacher, I wonder what you want to do with your student?"

Privately, Iijima Mori would call Yoshio Shinozuka his teacher, while he himself would call himself a student.

Only when there are outsiders, he will address them as Your Excellency Commander or Your Excellency General.

Shinozuka Yoshio stared at Iijima Mori with sharp eyes and said expressionlessly: "You really don't know why I came to you?"

Iijima Mori calmed down: "Students don't know."

Yoshio Shinozuka's face instantly became stern, and he slapped the desk in front of him: "Iijima Mori, do you really not know?"

"Tell me why you betrayed His Majesty the Emperor and the Empire of Japan!"

"Even if Miyano-kun puts all the evidence in front of me, I still don't want to believe that a top student trained by the Imperial Army University and a colonel of the Imperial Japanese Army would actually do it for a mere 10 large yellow croakers.

He betrayed the intelligence, betrayed His Majesty the Emperor, and betrayed the Empire of Japan!

Tell me, why is this?"

"Haha! Just 10 big yellow croakers!" Now that the matter had been exposed, Iijima Mori simply stopped pretending. He even felt a sense of relief in his heart, which made him feel a lot more relaxed.

He smiled miserably and said: "In the eyes of your Excellency the Commander, 10 yellow croakers are nothing, but in my eyes, this is my salary for several years!"

It is worth mentioning that the salary of Japanese military officers is not high. Although Iijima Mori is a colonel officer, he is not allowed to go to the front line to plunder because he is engaged in the intelligence industry and is not a frontline field force.

Therefore, with no way to make extra money, the money he makes is even less than that of an ordinary grassroots soldier.

"Haga!" Shinozuka Yoshio was instantly angered by Iijima Mori's words and yelled: "Iijima Mori! It's just a few years' salary. Is this the reason why you betrayed His Majesty the Emperor and the Empire of Japan?"

"Betraying His Majesty the Emperor? Betraying the Empire of Japan?" Mori Iijima suddenly became excited. He glared at Yoshio Shinozuka and shouted at the top of his voice: "I was drafted into the army when I was 16 years old, and for the past 30 years I have been serving the Southern Empire.

I fought in the Northern War, risked my life, and never returned to my hometown or reunited with my family for many years. Can I say that I have done my best to His Majesty the Emperor and the Empire?"

"But what about His Majesty the Emperor and the Empire? How did they treat me? Have they ever been kind to me?"

Yoshio Shinozuka suddenly discovered that Iijima Mori might have a hidden agenda for betraying the Empire. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Why don't His Majesty the Emperor and the Empire treat you well? The Empire gives you 350 yen every month.

Isn’t the salary good enough? You have to know that domestic workers only earn less than 20 yen per month.”

"350 yen? That's quite a lot to say the least!" Iijima Mori was willing to go all out anyway, with a sarcastic smile on his face and asked: "Has the full amount been paid?"

Yoshio Shinozuka couldn't help being speechless when he heard this. Due to the continuous expansion of the scale of the Japan-China War, resulting in financial constraints, starting from 1938, soldiers' salaries were only paid half, and by 1939, they were only paid one-third, and even

Less than.

The remaining salary is said to be deferred, but in fact it will not be paid.

After being stunned for a long time, Yoshio Shinozuka said again: "Even if it is less than one-third of the salary, 100 yen is enough for you to live and feed, right?

Besides, all expenses in China are free of charge."

"Haha!" Iijima Mori sneered again and again: "100 yen can really make me have enough food and clothing. It can even give me enough money to have a drink and visit the brothels occasionally."

Speaking of this, Iijima Mori's expression suddenly began to twist, ugly like a devil crawling out of hell, and said with a ferocious face: "But where is my family? Your Excellency, Commander, my respected Commander! You

Do you know? Because of the famine, my father starved to death! Starved to death!

My wife, in order to save food and keep my young son alive, she chose to hang herself!

My two daughters, the older one has just turned 20 and the younger one has just turned 16!

But I was kidnapped by the empire that I had always been loyal to, and sent to be a comfort woman somewhere. I don’t know whether I am alive or dead! There is no news at all!”

"My wife has died and my daughter has been separated. Only my 70-year-old mother and a young son who is waiting to be fed are still in my hometown!"

"My respected Commander, please tell me, is this how His Majesty the Emperor and the Empire treat meritorious ministers kindly?

Ah, tell me!"

"Why is this so?" Shinozuka Yoshio's face was full of astonishment. He actually began to sympathize with Iijima Mori in front of him. He could no longer feel angry or hateful at all.

Even if the other party betrayed his Majesty the Emperor and the Empire of Japan just for 10 large yellow croakers, the empire suffered huge losses...
